About

Welcome to Business Builders

Business Builders was created based on a true passion and years of knowledge, just as the classes emphasize. Most businesses are started from a lifelong passion, childhood dream, or a special gift. As a banker, for the past 30 years, my best experiences have evolved around the young entrepreneur “with an idea”, the small business “ready to expand”, or the employee “driven to be the best”.

In my positions as commercial lender, business sales development and bank president, I have experienced them all. My childhood passion “to help people” has been complimented with the knowledge of business operation and finance.

Business Builders will take you on a journey. Not only will you spend hours with me, you will also be coached by the friends and colleagues, I’ve met along the way. Derek, Marina, Neicy, Kristin, Dan, Martha and Ron have all excelled in their fields, and like me, wish to pass on their knowledge to those aspiring to open or grow their business. We ourselves are entrepreneurs, consultants and supervisors. We will teach by example and share our stories along the way.

Business Builders is my dream, join us and make your dream, a reality, too.
